And almost every grocery store brand has by products in it and way too much corn or wheat gluten. Dogs really shouldn't have grain anyway, that is how they have so many allergies and itching problems. Dogs are carnivores, not ominvores. If the first ingredient in your dog food isn't a named meat or meat meal then it is not a great food for your dog. All the dog foods at the grocery store are fast food for animals, would you eat McDonald's every day for the rest of your life?? Just something to think about.
I think thats alittle over reacting. I mean not every dog food out there is made up of chicken feet and beef testicles. There are some good middle of the road quality brand dog food out there. Nobody said they were feeding their puppy/dog Beneful. Purina wasnt even one of the brands in the big petfood recall earlier this year! Or was it Pedigree? I dont remember now. Or both? Regardless, I dont think we're implying that we should hand our puppies/dogs food with eyeballs and beaks in it. I cant imagine that someone would spend upwards of $800+ on their dog and not be able to purchase something halfway decent for their pet.
